I'm trying to complete all the Distinguished degrees, I've currently completed 2. I noticed when I enrolled for the second degree, even though the text told me it would require 8 credits, it actually required the full 12 credits. I thought it might have just been a one-off glitch or bug, as I do have mods. So I shrugged it off, and did all three weeks.

When the time for the 3rd degree came around, I enrolled and it once again told me it would require 8 credits, but once confirmed and enrolled, showed I required 12. So I rolled back to a prior save, removed my mods, repaired my game 2x, and tried again. This is when I captured my screenshots.

The text clearly (in bold) states I need 8 credits to graduate, but again, once enrolled it shows I require 12.
